Subject Pronouns I, He, She, We, They — Grade 3
Grade 3 worksheet drilling subject pronouns I, he, she, we, and they. Students identify, complete, and correct sentences using the right form.
This worksheet gives Grade 3 students focused practice with subject pronouns — I, he, she, we, and they. A subject pronoun is the form a pronoun takes when it is performing the action in a sentence. Choosing the right form matters because errors like her ran to the door or me finished my work appear in student writing at this age and require direct instruction to correct. The three sections move from recognition to application: students first locate subject pronouns in printed sentences, then choose the correct form to complete a sentence, and finally rewrite sentences where the wrong pronoun case was used. A rule reminder box is included on the sheet for students to reference while they work.
Subject Pronouns I, He, She, We, They — Grade 3
Read each sentence carefully and think about the pronoun's job. Decide whether the pronoun is doing the action before you answer.
Remember
- A subject pronoun does the action in a sentence. Use I, he, she, we, or they as the subject.
- Use I, not me, when you are doing the action. Wrong: Me went to the store. Right: I went to the store.
- Use he, she, we, or they — not him, her, us, or them — when those people are doing the action.

Notes for the grown-up
